Heh. Regular Expressions aren't for everyone - I happen to work w/ two engineers who live and die by them.

In your bean setter for the date, I'd make sure no exceptions could be thrown, or handle them - the code I took over from an engineer we had that left had this issue and it took me almost a week to track down what was going on between the validator and his code.
Yeah, essentially I'm covering all the bases (null pointers, index out of bounds, etc.) so no RuntimeExceptions can be thrown either. If anything doesn't look right to the translation method, it simply returns the original. I DO like regular expressions, but feel that a lot of people go overboard and use them for things they shouldn't be used for :).
